Definitions
- This invention relates generally to a closure assembly for evacuated blood collection tubes such as VACUTAINER* Brand evacuated tubes. More particularly, this invention relates to such a closure which reduces the incidence of contamination of the user of the evacuated tube when obtaining a blood sample from the tube.
- evacuated tubes are used in large quantities to take blood samples from patients for subsequent testing of the blood for various purposes to determine if a patient has certain diseases or blood problems or other physical health problems of some kind. It is routine for a laboratory technician, for example, to take several samples from a single evacuated tube for various tests. Since the tube is evacuated, there is a pressure differential across the stopper holding the sample in the tube many times. Thus, when a needle is inserted through the diaphragm of the stopper, there can be an aerosol of the sample which may spray onto the technician. Moreover, when taking samples, sometimes blood droplets are left on the top surface of the stopper during the removal of the needle once a sample has been taken from the evacuated tube.
- EP-A-0 028 411 describes a closure assembly for evacuatable tubes, comprising a stopper having a flange portion which is engaged by four projections provided on the inner side of a cap having a central opening allowing access to the stopper by a needle.
- the top wall of the cap is in direct contact with a flange of the stopper and the insertion opening of the top wall has on its lower side a diameter which corresponds to the diameter of the well provided in the stopper. If a needle pierced into the membrane of the stopper, blood droplets or aerosol may spray away from the needle tip upon withdrawal thereof from the membrane.
- the closure assembly according to the invention has the features of claim 1.
- an arrangement for reducing to a minimum exposure of aerosol or blood droplets which may be evident in removing a blood sample from an evacuated tube.
- This is achieved by providing a cap assembly which is mounted over the resilient rubber stopper of the evacuated tube.
- the internal surface of the cap is configured to provide opposing abutments which cooperate with the portion of the rubber stopper extending from the evacuated tube in order to hold the cap in place.
- the cap includes a top portion which extends over the top of the stopper to define between the top surface of the stopper and the bottom surface of the extended top portion of the cap a cavity which serves to contain any blood droplets or aerosol which may arise when a sample is removed from the tube.
- the top portion extending over the top surface of the stopper includes a central bore for receiving the needle necessary for puncture of the diaphragm for removing the sample. Otherwise, the top surface of the stopper is effectively closed so as to, as discussed above, contain any aerosol or blood droplets which may arise from taking the sample.
- a closure assembly generally designated 10 is shown placed on the open end 14 of tube 12.
- Tube 12 is a conventional blood sample tube which may be evacuated for receiving subsequently a blood sample therein.
- the tube has the open end 14 and a closed end 16.
- An elastomeric stopper 18 closes the open end 14 of the tube.
- tube 12 will be evacuated during its manufacture and assembly for receiving, subsequently, a blood sample from a patient which sample is inserted through the thin diaphragm portion 14 of stopper 18. That is, stopper 18 includes an upper well 33 in the top surface 35 thereof and a lower well 19.
- stopper 18 includes an upper flange portion 24 which has an abutment lower surface 54 thereon which extends beyond the opening of the open end 14 of tube 12. Also, stopper 18 includes a depending annular portion, as shown in Fig. 1 which provides an annular outer sealing surface 22 which cooperates with the internal surface 20 of tube 12 to provide sealing of tube 12 to contain the vacuum therein when the assembly is made for subsequent taking of blood samples.
- Cap 30 includes an annular depending portion with an internal tapered groove 65 which cooperates with the tapered outer surface 66 of the upper flange portion 24 of stopper 18.
- the tapered groove 65 tapers away from the axis 70 of the assembly and ends in an abutment surface 56 which cooperates with the overhanging bottom surface 54 of the tapered upper flange portion 24 of the stopper 18. These cooperating surfaces serve to maintain the cap assembly 30 fixed in place on stopper 18. In addition, the opposed top surface 34 of stopper 18 and surface 37 on cap 30 serve this purpose.
- cap 30 includes an upper annular portion 71 which overhangs the top surface 35 of well 33 for defining a cavity 32 between the lower surface 36 of this overfiang portion of cap 30 and the surface 35 of well 33.
- the overhang portion includes a bore 38 for receiving a needle therethrough for engaging and passing through diaphragm 41 for inserting and removing blood samples from the container.
- Bore 38 includes a tapered entry portion 42 tapering toward or converging toward axis 70 for enhancing or guiding the operator's needle in passing through bore 38 to diaphragm 41. The relationship of the taper 42 and bore 38 are shown clearly in the plan view of Fig. 2.
- the lower annular portion 28 of cap 30 is spaced as shown at 29 from the outer surface of tube 12 so that the cap 30 itself does not prevent rapid and easy removal of stopper 18, when desired, from tube 12.
- the operator need merely grasp the cap 30 which has a larger grasping surface for this purpose, to pry off the elastomeric stopper 18 from tube 12.
- the lower annular portion 28 of cap 30 includes a tapered annular surface 58 diverging away from axis 30, as shown in Fig. 1. This tapered surface serves to cooperate with the tapered surface 66 on the flange portion 24 of the stopper 18 to cam the annular portion 28 over the stopper forthe initial assembly of the closure assembly 10.
- cap 30 may be comprised of any generally flexible material such as a thermoplastic moldable material including, for example, polyethylene. It will be understood, however, that the cap may be comprised of other semi-rigid flexible materials such as metal or hard rubber.
- cap assembly 10 will vary, depending upon the size of the evacuated tube for which it is functioning as a closure, representative dimensions are as follows:
- the dimension 48 defining the width of flange 24 on stopper 18 is 17,5 mm (0.686 inches).
- the cap 30 diameter will be about 20 mm (0.78 inches) to cooperate with a stopper of this dimension.
- the height 52 of cap 30 will be 13,8 mm (0.72 inches), the bore 38 diameter 44 will be 1,27 mm (0.05 inches), height 51 will be 1,27 mm (0.05 inches) and the tapered opening dimension 46 will be 3,17 mm (0.125 inches). It is to be understood, however, that these dimensions are being presented as exemplary only and changes can be made, depending upon the dimensions of a particular evacuated tube being closed, as will be understood by practitioners-in-the-art.
- the composite assembly of stopper 18 and cap 30 when the composite assembly of stopper 18 and cap 30 are formed, then the composite assembly may be mounted on the top of tube 12 and inserted in the open end 14thereof for sealing tube 12.
- the lower surface thereof is tapered at 23 to enhance this insertion procedure.
- a new composite closure assembly for evacuated tubes for taking blood samples which closure assembly is more hygienic to the user and the patient in that lower contamination from blood is contained within the assembly itself reducing exposure of a technician to aerosol caused by stopper removal or blood sample removal and blood droplets on the top of the stopper surface.
- the assembly herein serves to contain the small portions of a blood sample not ordinarily contained for reducing contamination, as will be understood.
- the cap assembly herein is more readily removable from an evacuated tube because it provides a larger gripping surface and a certain flexibility for grasping and removing the stopper from the sealing engagement thereof with an evacuated tube. It should be understood, moreover, that during this removal procedure, the lower annular portion 28 of cap 30 serves to protect the technician from any blood which might escape from the open end 14 of tube 12 during this removal procedure.
